Duck is probably one of the most underrated meat. I might be a little biased here, but East Asians definitely make the best duck dishes. If overcooked, duck can easily become tough and rubbery. But the Chinese, especially, always nails it. Whether it be in Peking style or Cantonese roast duck style, they’re always an absolute delight to savour. Here are our favourite places to get our halal duck fix:

The Best Places to Find Halal Duck in London

Rice Guys

DIY meal kits were the thing over 2020. The best one though, for me, ought to be Rice Guy’s Cantonese Roast Duck, which is still currently available for nationwide delivery. The whole dry-aged Cantonese roast duck is generous in portion, easy to prep, and absolutely delicious! If that’s too much effort (it’s really not though), they also deliver ready-made Cantonese Roast Duck Rice Set where you only need to reheat. 

Halal Status: Duck and chicken is halal.
Delivery: Nationwide
